About this property

Gorgeous Oceanfront Retreat near Halifax

You will feel at home as soon as you walk through the doors of this stylish Nova Scotia vacation home. Enjoy expansive views across St Margaret’s Bay and looking out to the rugged Shut-In Island. Wander across the large yard to the shore and beachcomb amongst the rocks. With 255 feet of waterfront, there is plenty of room to enjoy.

This house has just undergone a renovation which has made it an outstanding place to enjoy coastal living with the whole family. A large new deck and newly renovated bathrooms are just a few of the upgrades.

The main floor features a bright living room with high ceilings and large windows looking out to the ocean. The comfortable furnishings, propane fireplace and flat screen TV make for a great place to kick back and relax. The well-designed kitchen features quartz countertops, an island with bar stools and everything you’ll need to cook up a feast. The dining area is located just off the living room and kitchen, with a table large enough to seat eight.

The primary bedroom is located on the main floor, with a comfortable king sized bed. This bedroom features ocean views through large windows, an entrance to the deck, a flat screen TV, a luxurious 4-piece ensuite bathroom and a large walk-in closet.

The main floor features two additional bedrooms – both spacious, bright and with queen sized beds. These rooms share a four piece bathroom, with a tub/shower combination.

A large patio runs along the back of the house and looks out over the lawn and out to the ocean. Here you can use the propane barbeque and enjoy a meal outdoors on the dining table that seats six. A perfect place to enjoy the view in style and comfort!

Downstairs is the fourth bedroom, with queen sized bed, and a bathroom with walk in shower. This floor also has a large rec room with plenty of games for kids and adults: ping-pong table, toys, board games and an indoor basketball hoop game.
